Cousin sat behind him for a game this season and was telling me how into the game he was and was very surprised at his knowledge of the game. He said if he didn't know any better, he'd think Benson was more of a bball fan than football.

Players also came by after the game to shake his hand or hug him and his wife.

He does know basketball. If I'm not mistaken, he was involved with the Spurs a few years back.
